Analysis of EEG data on complex human thinking

Introduction: Studying higher cognitive functions of he human brain poses a challenge not only to neurosciences, but also to the methods of statistical data processing and analysis. As an example for the investigation of higher cognitive functions this study investigates methods of analysis of electroencephalographic (EEG) data that was collected in experiments on the visual perception of causal events and on a better understanding of cognitive remodeling. The enhanced analytic methods are expected to help identifying the participating cognitive processes and to support their modelling. Methods: Several techniqu…
